I decided to try that with some of my favorite pictures and sure enough the reverse image looks like Mills. I am sure there is a scientific formula for this effect but I find it simply amazing!!</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/172463841http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/172463841Wed, 26 Aug 2009 18:09:46 -0500<img src="http://10.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_koonxkk1nx1qz8fndo1_500.jpg"/><br/> Pure Rudeness<br/><br/> <img src="http://1.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_koonxkk1nx1qz8fndo2_500.jpg"/><br/> God Would Not Make My Kids Cry<br/><br/> <p>Some rude jerk ruined my day yesterday and parked in my reserved parking spot at work. To make matters worse, it was a blistering hot day and I had just picked up a six pack of ginger ale for my kids’ party. Since I had to park in the sun, the ginger ale exploded and ruined my I-pod and my new camera. I was running late leaving work and ended up showing up to the party without the drinks and then I couldn’t take pictures. My wife is not talking to me because we don’t have pictures and my kids are disappointed in me because the only thing I had to do was bring the drinks. Bad day!!</p> <p>I am a pretty easy going guy but if I figure out who did this it is not going to be pretty.</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/167409935http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/167409935Thu, 20

hour........<br/><br/> <p>I saw this guy at the lakes today.  I am not sure what to say about this.  I am sure the PETA folks would complain but I can tell you the dog LOVED it and it was obvious the dog was very fond of his owner.  I am not sure what the story was with the guy.  He might have been homeless.  There was something “off” about him and I felt like I was interupting him as we spoke.  I am not one to ask alot of personal question especially of strangers.</p> <p>My encounter with this guy has lingered with me all day.  It is part admiration and part sadness.</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/159628951http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/159628951Mon, 10 Aug 2009 01:27:00 -0500<img

popped back up.  He said he got the bottom wet without getting any water in the basket.</p> <p>This is the pond behind the Pennington Biomedical Research Center.  We had no idea he was going to do this.  We were just there by dumb luck.  Turned out to be our lucky day.</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/159613563http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/159613563Mon, 10 Aug 2009 00:56:01 -0500<img

href="http://sds.tumblr.com/post/124146276/safeway-rewards-good-health">sds</a>:</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>Safeway’s plan capitalizes on two key insights gained in 2005. The first is that 70% of all health-care costs are the direct result of behavior. The second insight, which is well understood by the providers of health care, is that 74% of all costs are confined to four chronic conditions (cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity). Furthermore, 80% of cardiovascular disease and diabetes is preventable, 60% of cancers are preventable, and more than 90% of obesity is preventable.<br/><br/>As much as we would like to take credit for being a health-care innovator, Safeway has done nothing more than borrow from the well-tested automobile insurance model. For decades, driving behavior has been correlated with accident risk and has therefore translated into premium differences among drivers. Stated somewhat differently, the auto-insurance industry has long recognized the role of personal responsibility. As a result, bad behaviors (like speeding, tickets for failure to follow the rules of the road, and frequency of accidents) are considered when establishing insurance premiums. Bad driver premiums are not subsidized by the good driver premiums. […]</p> <p>Our obesity and smoking rates are roughly 70% of the national average and our health-care costs for four years have been held constant. When surveyed, 78% of our employees rated our plan good, very good or excellent. In addition, 76% asked for more financial incentives to reward healthy behaviors. […]</p> <p>Today, we are constrained by current laws from increasing these incentives. We reward plan members $312 per year for not using tobacco, yet the annual cost of insuring a tobacco user is $1,400. Reform legislation needs to raise the federal legal limits so that incentives can better match the true incremental benefit of not engaging in these unhealthy behaviors.</p> </blockquote> <p><a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124476804026308603.html#mod=djemEditorialPage">How Safeway Is Cutting Health-Care Costs - WSJ.com</a></p> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>This is plain silly!  Problems can’t be solved without government intervention (and money)</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/124191053http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/124191053Mon, 15 Jun 2009 17:12:42 -0500<img src="http://22.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDor9yx4pF5SozXNTo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Does Facebook need to be this rude?</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/124186268http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/124186268Mon, 15 Jun 2009 17:01:48 -0500<img src="http://18.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDo9hukheBySjTc8io1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Good New/Bad News</p> <p>I got a new lawnmower delivered on Labor Day Weekend Friday.  I went home to sign for it and <i><b>had</b></i> to give it a test drive.  Less than two hours after it was delivered I (it) sent a rock through the mini van window.</p> <p>Ford is proud of the dark, shaped glass for the sliding door!  Luckily a friend of mine knows a “glass guy” that could get it and install it at a discount.  To my amazement, he was able to get it changed at 5pm on a holiday Friday.</p> <p>By the way…….. the grass looks great!</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/117296866http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/117296866Wed, 03 Jun 2009 06:22:31 -0500<img src="http://6.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDo9hgwp5w9CtioMLo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Who knew?  You would figure the Wal Mart folks would be fans of the Pigs.</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/117294218http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/117294218Wed, 03 Jun 2009 06:11:53 -0500<a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/latestCrisis/idUSL8960764">Reuters - Desk jobs making more people obese, study finds</a>: <p><a href="http://danhacker.tumblr.com/post/94847328/desk-jobs-making-more-people-obese-study-finds">danhacker</a>:</p> <blockquote>Yeah… too surprised about these findings.</blockquote> <p>Sadly, I am a lab rat in this study.</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95172033http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95172033Sat, 11 Apr 2009 10:08:38 -0500<img src="http://1.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDm5zd27yDSNaKlZfo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>PTU - Potty Training University - graduating class 2009.  The only graduation caps we could find had clown hair attached which seems fitting for this class.  It is a nice milestone to pass.  <i>(The oldest was potty trained some time ago but we did not do a ceremony.  It is tough being the big brother to triplets and he does an excellent job and we don’t want him to feel left out)</i></p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95170679http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95170679Sat, 11 Apr 2009 10:02:18 -0500<img src="http://3.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDm5z86pxJuGUuXt3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Big Day!  PTU graduation ceremonies.  Diploma!</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95169730http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/95169730Sat, 11 Apr 2009 09:58:30 -0500<img src="http://19.media.tumblr.com/zpu07yDpDlz719vzXxlTzJN8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Nothing will make you feel more masculine than to have your wife call you on the cellphone from from her car (behind you) to tell you that you forgot the diaper bag hanging on the rear view mirror as you race down the interstate at 75 miles per hour.</p> <p>On the positive side, we are fully potty trained and I can stop taking the “man purse” with me on the “guys only” trips.  I’ll just leave it in the minivan (another thing that screems manly man!)</p>http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/93574031http://idkwidk.tumblr.com/post/93574031Mon, 06 Apr 2009 16:02:41 -0500
